| Description of the problem | The break, abs, esc and chk engine light all came on and literally everything shut down. There was no steering (extremely difficult), and worst of all no breaks. I could barely bring the car to a stop with both feet and had to divert my travel into a parking lot to avoid going through a red light. The problem stems from a faulty abs module and has been reported numerous times on various web sites. The repair is very costly and the consequences are so potentially deadly i can't understand why this has not been a recall item.. Please do the driving public a huge favor and investigate this problem. It's not as though hyundai doesn't know about the problem. |
